Chapter 312, Air Combat Trap 3
Although the rìben fighter was more in the total number, the unfavorable combat altitude - at such altitudes, the rìben fighter, with insufficient engine output, behaved very clumsy at such altitudes. It is important to know that any air combat maneuver requires a certain amount of energy, and if this consumed energy is not replenished, it will lead to the loss of speed or altitude of the aircraft.
In the original history, in the 1991 Gulf War, a MiG29 fighter of the Iraqi Air Force was in a struggle with an F15 fighter of the US military because the energy lost in the hovering could not be replenished, and the altitude continued to decline, and finally crashed directly. Now, the aircraft is also facing such a problem. Although the instantaneous circling angular velocity of the Rì fighter was superior to that of the US fighter, after this action, the engine of Rì's own tragedy could not replenish the energy lost during the action in time, so the Rì plane that had completed the first action either barely maintained its altitude, but its speed dropped significantly, so that when he did the second action, he had to risk stalling. Either the speed is maintained, but the altitude drops a lot, and the opponent who has the advantage in height keeps diving and attacking, but there is no chance to fight back.
In addition, the erroneous judgment of the enemy fighter at the beginning led to the fighter joining the battle by refueling, and it was constantly beaten by the US fighter unit, which had an advantage in terms of ability, pilot skill level, and altitude and speed. The ratio of exchange in time of war is becoming more and more miserable.
Theoretically, once shot down and when you need to parachute, the pilot parachutes and falls, and after a while you can fly with another fighter jet, while once the American pilot is shot down and parachuted, if he is not directly killed by the mob, he has to stay in the prisoner of war camp until the end of the war. In the Battle of Britain, the British relied largely on this advantage to achieve the final victory.
But now two factors made the battle very different from the Battle of Britain. The first is the exchange ratio, in the Battle of Britain, even if only the exchange ratio between the fighters of the two sides is counted, the British will not suffer. And now, Rì himself in this situation has played an exchange ratio of less than fifteen to one with the Americans. The second difference is that the efficiency of the firepower is very different. At the time of the Battle of Britain, everyone's fighter jets were still selling 7.7 or 7.92 mm machine guns. Although the planes at that time were not as strong as the fighters at this time, they were still able to withstand the blow of such firepower for a while. This way the pilot also has time to skydive. And now, the firepower of the fighters is racing one by one. The firepower of the P-51's four 20mm rifles in this time and space is already quite perverted, and the shè speed of 4,000 rounds per minute will definitely allow him to shoot a thin-skinned Rìben fighter in the air in a single shè hit. As for the P-81, which was equipped with six 20-mm guns, that would not have given the pilots of the enemy fighters who were hit the opportunity to parachute. Therefore, there were not many pilots in the downed rìben plane who had the opportunity to parachute.
Rì himself, after realizing that he had been fooled, also tried to concentrate his fighters first, and then fight with the Americans when they were concentrated in sufficient numbers. But how could the Americans have allowed Rì himself to get out of the trap so easily? And Rì's own reaction was also in Ron's previous preparations. Therefore, as soon as the planes showed signs of concentration, a large group of American fighters would immediately pounce on them and disperse them.
After such a big battle, the fuel tanks of both sides were consumed a lot. As a result, the US fighters began to climb and prepare to get out of the battle. There are also some people who are not very willing, but the largest number of Zero and Type 1 fighters simply cannot keep up with the climb of the US military, and those few who can climb with it, such as Thunderbolt 21, are too few. Some of them didn't follow with a clear head, but they were immediately watched by strong onlookers, and finally fireworks were set off in the air.
Since he couldn't keep up with the American planes on the climb, and he didn't have a lot of fuel left, Rì's own fighter had to honestly return to the airport and land.
Compared with the Germans, Rì himself had an advantage, that is, their main fighter - whether it was a Zero or a Type 1 fighter - had a good range, so that they would not have to land in the skies over Europe, and the enemy planes still had half a tank of fuel. But to say that the Americans retreated, and they still had a lot of fuel in their tanks, it would be impossible to think about it.
Therefore, after the US fighters retreated, Rì's own fighters were about to land on the airfield one after another, and at this time, the radar station reported the enemy situation again - the enemy bomber group was found, and the number was as high as hundreds!
"Holy! And there's more! "Almost all the officers who heard the news scolded the Yankees in various languages in their hearts, and at the same time they were also thinking about an important question, that is, was the American plane that came this time really a bomber?
Of the nearly 1,000 fighters that took off one after another, nearly 300 were shot down, plus dozens of wounded, such losses really made Rì himself unaffordable. What's even worse is that, unlike kamikaze, the fighter pilots who are sent out to carry out interception missions can't be those guys who have only flown for more than ten hours. Therefore, in the battle just now, it was already the last slightly stronger pilot left by Rì himself. The fact that these pilots suffered such losses was a death sentence for Rìben's air power.
Yanagi, nicknamed the Bandit Gull pilot, had just finished landing and was carried out of the cockpit. As a pilot of the Rì Army, who joined the battle at the beginning of the war, it was not easy to survive until now. Today's battle was particularly treacherous, as the Bandit Gull was shot down by all friendly planes, and he piloted a Zero Combat alone in a desperate situation against at least 75 enemy P-51 fighters. A good skull, really showed the same flying skills as a skull, in the turn attack of the enemy plane, constantly made unbelievable dodges, and finally escaped from the attack of the enemy plane without delay, and also seized the opportunity to shoot down a P-51.
But perhaps it was because this battle consumed too much character, and as a result, he immediately encountered bad luck. At that time, the flight altitude of the bandit gulls that withdrew from the battle was already relatively low (too much energy was consumed in evasion, and they could only rely on constantly reducing the altitude to obtain the kinetic energy to continue maneuvering), and as a result, just when the US fighter gave up the pursuit of him, an army fighter type 1 came out of nowhere and gave him a shuttle without saying a word. A 12.7 mm bullet entered the cockpit, directly breaking the right hand of the Thief Gull, which was holding the cāo pole. Then, the fighter turned back again, as if it was going to give him one more moment, and then, well, then the red deer in the army seemed to see the big sun sign on the wing of the robber and realized that he had made a mistake. So he hurried to the bandit gulls, waving and nodding at him, and constantly apologizing to him on the radio.
"I'm so sorry I opened fire before I saw it clearly, and I'm sorry to cause you trouble."
"I'm sorry to give him a meow! Do you want to know what the dead do? "It was as if 10,000 alpacas had run over in their hearts. He used his left hand to control the cāo longitudinal rod, bit down on the garment with his teeth, and with the cooperation of his left hand, tightly tied up the broken part of his right hand. If he didn't, before he could fly back to the airport, he would lose blood and kill him. So the robber gull did not have any time to answer this army red deer.
But this uninteresting red deer was still following him, and he kept rambling on and on. It's like a thousand flies spinning around the head of the robber. Let the bandits and gulls have the desire to pull out the knife and pounce on him, cut his belly, pull out his intestines, and then use it to strangle his neck, so that his whole tongue sticks out, and then the knife falls...... The illusion that the world is pure.
However, there is no way for the bandit gulls to really jump into the opposite plane to do this good deed for the people. I can only stare at him viciously. However, there is no lower limit to the low IQ of a rookie, and that red deer seems to be patronizing and talking, forgetting to control the plane, and his plane actually rubbed towards the fighter of the bandit gulls! The Thief Gull yelled on the radio, "Get out of here", and controlled the plane with his left hand to make a turn, which was considered to avoid this blow. And the rookie also hurriedly pulled a sharp turn, well, and then stalled and fell. As for whether this guy fell directly to the ground and fell eight petals or pulled it up again, the bandit gulls didn't take a serious look - at this time, they can't take care of themselves.
In this way, the bandit gulls reluctantly flew back with his Zero, and reluctantly landed the plane, and as soon as the plane stopped, he fainted. So, he didn't hear the following conversation.
"Doctor, is it possible for Yanagi to continue to fight by plane/"
"Sir, this is impossible. Absolutely impossible! ”
"Oh my God, when he wakes up, how am I going to tell him the bad news?"
“……”
"Sir!" A junior officer spoke, "Didn't an institution called the Fujita Weapons Research Institute ask us to provide them with an experienced advisor?" Or we'll ......."
